“The best sushi I’ve had in Colorado so far that’s not crazy expensive / like downtown Denver. This is my go too for sushi and the lunch bento boxes are very generous. Top quality!“

“I can’t rave enough about this restaurant. I actually tend to order a rare steak pho at least once a week. I have tried about 6 other pho places around and nothing compares to H Pho’s broth. If I could eat it daily I would. Their pho, ramen, and spring rolls are just the best.“

“I am very happy to see more and more high-quality sushi restaurants in Denver. The chefs are very friendly and know a lot of skills in handling sashimi. The sushi rolls are well matched, the taste is very rich, the waiters are very enthusiastic, and the overall decoration atmosphere is very good. People feel very comfortable. Happy to share this restaurant with you all.“

“Awesome food and fantastic service~“

“My girlfriend and I walked here after visiting the Nature and Science Museum. The atmosphere was calm and relaxing on a Friday around noon. The avocado salmon roll was buttery umame and the Tonkatsu ramen hit just right. The pork flavor was strong but not too rich, and they gave me a generous portion of pork belly. It was served the perfect temperature. Will be back again when visiting Denver“

“I am addicted to this place. I am in love with their Shoyu ramen with soft boiled egg and their vegetable tempura. There are many options for other ramen as well as other Japanese dishes and sushi. It's small but cozy. I just love it!“

“Great food and service! The most tender chicken breast ever. The desserts are so delicious. Clean and cozy dining room. Staff that makes you feel like family. All around fantastic dining experience.“

“Fanatic service! Great neighborhood restaurant. Check it out 🍣😘“

“Amazing experience from start to finish! The sashimi platter was absolutely stunning—fresh, thick cuts of salmon, tuna, and white fish beautifully presented and incredibly clean in flavor. You can truly taste the quality of the fish. The chef’s special toro with uni and caviar was a standout—rich, buttery, and perfectly balanced. The sweet shrimp was another highlight, super fresh and naturally sweet, with a great texture.
The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the service was attentive without being rushed. Everything felt thoughtfully prepared, from presentation to execution. If you love high-quality sushi and beautiful plating, this place is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be coming back again! 🍣✨“

“Great Food!!! Come here whenever I come to Denver.❤️❤️“

“Passed this place many times but never stopped. Decided to stop in a month ago and try it. All I can say is WOW! It was fantastic. Service was exceptional and loved the atmosphere. Ordered takeout last week and still, food was amazing, fresh, and so good. This is definitely my new favorite sushi spot! Highly recommend!“

“Ordered a handful of different rolls for dinner. Fish tasted pretty fresh, rolls were a good size.

We personally didn’t like the Hawaiian roll— the flavors were kind of overwhelming & the pieces of fish felt too large for a single bite. It was probably just personal preference as there was nothing wrong with the roll!“

“Utterly DELICIOUS! Intimate setting! Treat yourself!“

“I'm so thrilled to see the DOMO is back open. This is one of my all-time favorite restaurants with some of the best food I've ever enjoyed. Entering the restaurant feels like passing through a magic gateway into rural Japan where you get to savor authentic country cuisine. Whether you're eating solo, on a date, or bringing the family, don't pass up an opportunity to enjoy everything the DOMO has to offer! I'll definitely be stopping in the next time I'm back visiting Denver.“

“I recently discovered this hidden gem of a sushi restaurant tucked away in a strip mall next to Starbucks and that shares a parking lot with Taco Bell in Highlands Ranch. From the outside, it’s easy to miss, But once you step inside, you’re in for a treat!

The menu is massive, offering an impressive variety of sushi, sashimi, rolls, and Japanese dishes. What stands out is the freshness of the food and the high-quality ingredients. The sushi was some of the best in the area, beating the regular spots in Highlands Ranch.

Our server was delightful —kind, attentive, and very helpful in navigating the menu. They made excellent recommendations and made us feel well taken care of.

The only downside is the atmosphere, which feels a bit blah and could use some updating to match the quality of the food. However, the restaurant just started offering beer, wine, and sake, and plans to expand their liquor menu soon, which is a promising!

Despite the unassuming location and lackluster ambiance, the incredible food and top-notch service make this my new favorite sushi spot in Highlands Ranch. If you’re looking for fresh, delicious sushi that outshines the competition, don’t let the location deter you—this place is great!“

“I love it. Eat here regularly. Teriyaki chicken is the BOMB!!!“

“The Best here in Denver away from the ocean“

“It was so good the service it so good and the food came so fast“

“Cannot believe I haven't had Taki before! Really really great sushi for the price I was shocked. Spicy gyoza is incredible and some of my favorite I've had. Fish is fresh. For a not super upscale spot I'm super impressed. Presentation is great.“

“My family enjoys dining here often. We like supporting a family owned restaurant with one of the best ramen bowls we have had. Highly recommend the seafood ramen bowls and dumplings. It’s been our favorite for cold nights. The price is reasonable.“

“Excellent Sushi with every bite!“

“Fresh. Yummy. GF/DF options make my stomach happy. Thank you.“

“I usually don’t leave reviews but this one deserves it 100 percent. I’m an asian woman and i’m very picky when it comes to asian foods. I bought the ramen and it tastes amazing. The ingredients are rich and the ginseng tastes like a cure. Best ramen I ever had in my life, no joke. And the staff are amazing, very quick, responsive and friendly.“

“Here you will find authentic delicious Japanese country cooking. Having eaten all over Japan I can say there is a very big difference between Americanized Japanese food and authentic classic Japanese cooking. While the interior is dated and not necessarily attractive, it makes no difference to me because the food takes you away to Japan in your mind and you forget about all else.“

“amazing! my son and I went for a late lunch and it was so good! definitely going again“

“😲 Your chicken curry 😲 was so good. It was the first time I've ever had any curry in my life. Seen it in an anime not too long ago and wanted to try it. There's nothing American about this curry. I believe I tasted true Japan curry in every bite. 😋“

“Perfect the way it is, no need to change anything.“

“I had the pleasure to eat at this fine establishment over the weekend with some great people! Let’s just say Sushi Den do not disappoint for my fist experience and will definitely be back. Everything was awesome from the cocktails to the Nigiri and high end Whisky!“

“My daughter wrote on her school paper that Tokyo Joes a was her favorite restaurant when whe was in kindergarten (age 5). She just graduated high school (age 18) and we have continued to visit & enjoy on a regular basis. The great healthy food, comfortable atmosphere and the memories we've shared at a Tokyo Joes, will keep us coming back!“

“I really like to eat ramen, and this place is definitely stands out with their quality. They brought a beer with a cooled glass and ramen was just right - spicy enough, with meat chunks not being too fatty. I would definitely come back here.“

“It was delivered fresh and hot. In addition, Deborah F’s order (and her child’s) was delivered to me. It was sooo good. I’m sorry the other Deb didn’t get her meal this evening, but I can attest that Tokey Joe makes good food using fresh ingredients. I would have given 5 stars, but only gave 4 because they goofed up someone else’s order.“
